Holy Men

I've seen holy men babe
Watched them scribe their names
I've been all over highways
Spoke the campsite ways

Now the blood runs down the river
Like water to the throne
When there's too much water flowing
The treasures turn to bone
And all my life I saw this coming
And all this time we kept on running

They say holy men don't lie
But the cannonball keeps flying
And it don't come down
I've seen holy men babe
Turn a crowd insane
Water into wine babe
On the campaign trail

Now the blood runs down the river
And he controls the flow
To seven billion people
That you will never know
And all my life I saw this coming
And all this time we kept on running

They say holy men don't lie
But the cannonball keeps flying
And it don't come down
Will you be there
When it all comes down
Will you stop and stare
At the tumbling crowns
Will we be there
When it all comes down
Will we stop and stare
Will we tumble the crown
And all my life I saw this coming
And all this time we kept on running
They say holy men don't lie
But the cannonball keeps flying
And it don't come down
